unpleasant in the case OF young man who may be
calling upon the fair daughter OF the family with
the 'most fnnercentest" intentions. Imagine his
feelings on such an occasion as the abOye-men-
TONED. Won't the blood rush to his face and
won't he have a most angeiicaliy awkward smile
dishguring his countenance? The Old saying, that
II you sing before breakfast you will cry before
night, was evidently intended for those warbling
Angelinas ana Aramintas who imagine that when
they sing the eneranced nearer IS transported to
the seventh heaven OF delight.
Another popular belief, and should 1t ever be
expressed In your presence you may set the
speaker down as country-bred, is that should a
tree-frog he killed his death will be followed
shortly by rain.
''He is as cross as If he got ont OF bed on the
wrong side, Is q common expression.
The custom of walking arnl-in-arm may owe its
origin to belief, in the Olden time, that IL two
persons were walking together and another passed
between them they would be disappointed in
something they intended to do. The charm
against this Is for all parties TO say "Good
morning."

Letter to the Editor of the Pail Mall Gazette.
With reference to your article anenu fiogging

Bavarian government mas just issued directions
that no child In any school shall be punished eX-

also the number and dimensions Of the two twigs,
reminding one OF the time when in the deeds OF
many schools in England, three hundred years

TO provide rods" 1t is only quite OF late years
that the charge at Elton for birch OF half guinea
In every boys bill has ceased to be made, and the
present provost, when appointed head master, was
presented by the captain Of the school with birch
rod tied up with blue ribbon. The Elton rod con-

VitriOl as a Poison.

From the London Truth.
With regard to vttriOl which now seems to be

even forks, ropes, "bare bodkins," and indeed &C
cording to the distinguished authority OF Dickens

on the whole. think it might be well to treat
vitriOl as poison and place some restrictions
on its sale. The ordinary world could get on very
well with only q moderate amount OF 1t.

this does not include the thousands that build

$2l3 Co., 600 worth Of articles that six years ago
we bought from the North or West. In six years
following the Cotton Exposition OF 1873 new cot

witnessing an industrial revolution for which his
